Named Eight and Nine, the dolls' sculpting by Keisuke Sawada reminds Dolldom of the aesthetic of yaoi (やおい) manga and animé unlike any other coded-as-male fashion dolls. PetWORKS keeps the line's vitality with continuous iterations of the characters wearing sartorial trends - from butler uniforms to vampire eleganza - and an equally rich variety of face-ups and hairstyles in two skin-tones: ivory-beige and tanned.
Dolldom's editors, who have always felt honored to work with Japanese talent, immediately fell for tanned Nine. But it was not until recently that busy schedules allowed PetWORKs Boy B2405 NINE ( 六分の一男子図鑑 B2405 ナイン) to come to Dolldom for a first feature.
In this Dolldom exclusive, B2405 Nine portrays a style of masculinity that is rooted in tradition and made current by his uniquely kihin no aru (気品のある) attitude.
